6-9, 345-pound Zach Banner does little man things

USC offensive tackle Zach Banner is a mountain of a human. Listed at 6-9, 345 pounds, pass rushers have their work cut out for them when trying to apply pressure. Pancakes are a familiar sight.

But when Banner isn’t busy stonewalling foes in the trenches, he’s venturing outside of his comfort zone. Like, way outside of his comfort zone.

Joe Boozell has been a college basketball writer for NCAA.com since 2015. His work has also appeared in Bleacher Report, FOXSports.com and NBA.com. Joe’s claim to fame since joining NCAA.com: he’s predicted the correct national championship game twice… and picked the wrong winner both times. Growing up, Joe squared off against both Anthony Davis and Frank Kaminsky in the Chicagoland basketball scene. You can imagine how that went.
